The center interface carries torque and also establishes how the sun gear is located relative to bearings, the carrier and the mating planets.<\/p>\n<p>A dimensionally correct interface can still produce poor tooth contact if it is eccentric to the external gear teeth. Fits and datums therefore belong in the same review as the gear geometry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"sg-section sg-section--soft\">\n<div class=\"sg-container\">\n<div class=\"sg-section-head\">\n<h2>Practical design and replacement implications<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sg-split sg-split--flip\">\n<div class=\"sg-prose\">\n<p>For replacement work, measure the mating shaft or hub when possible.
